Maybe I'm off base here, but I thought the new "lobby" demo that the new 3DMark uses is not only uncreative-it's silly. It attempts to steal one of the best scenes in an incredible movie, and it rips its guts out. The graphics look silly and can you count the ejecting brass? YA-Neo fired a lot, but standing still, with 2 thousands shell casings?
I'm irritated.
(Also, How much did Kelt Keeves have to pay to get his FalconNW ad on all the load pages?)

Well, that scene..at least, the shapes, main charcter and general properties, were from Max Payne.
I dunno, I thought it was kind of cool, though I wish, like with the other 'games' they showed, it had a second scene, or that their Neo-Neo actually did some sort of kung fu Matrix thing.
Remember too, the Matrix wasn't exactly original - most of those fight scenes are pretty classic Hong Kong stuff...just with much better f/x's.
